The Sound of Diamonds Rachelle Rea Copyright 2015 WhiteFire Publishing ASIN: 1939023599 The Story: With the protestant Elizabeth on the throne of England and her family in shambles, Catholic maiden Gwyneth seeks refuge in the Low Countries of Holland, hoping to soothe her aching soul.

I don't know about you, but as the days get shorter and the nights get chillier, I get a little bummed. I'm a child of the summer. The beach, the sun, even the humidity, I miss it. Fall and winter are perfect seasons for snuggling under the covers with a good book and a hot cuppa. Fall is also a great time to sneak a peek at what's to come.
